I Love this recipe I have discovered that it can also be made using two jars with lids if you are out of Ziploc bags though and the benefit of using the jars it that it is less likely to pop open and spill everywhere! another thing I have discovered is that regular milk can be used in place of the half and half in a pinch! the only down side it that it takes a little longer to achieve the desired effect when using these methods probably because the sides of the jar are thicker than the bags and therefore takes longer to get the inside cold.

    I just made this with my niece & nephew they loved it. I followed the directions to the letter. It didn't even take the full 10 minutes for it to thicken up. Thanks for sharing.

    Made this with the kids for my daughter's birthday party! It was fun for the kids to make their own ice cream! While using half and half will give you a very creamy product it is possible to make this with plain milk as well. I also just used plain table salt and it worked just fine. We used a mixture of ice and snow from outside as her party theme was a "Winter Party". A really fun thing do do with the kids and I always have these ingredients on hand too. Thanks for this great activity!

    5 stars for ease of preparation and 5 more for the fun and fascination we had making this recipe. I made it twice: once with plain fresh milk and the other with half-and-half. I prefer the latter. Gonna put some rum soaked raisins in the baggie when I get a chance to. Had a bit of salty ice cream and to avoid getting any more, I'd put the sealed bag with the milk into another similar bag, seal or tie up that bag and then put it into the bag with ice. When ice cream is done, I'd just remove the innermost bag and wallah! Sweet ice cream. This is definitely a keeper!
